Need a VGA box

example from a quick google..

Only problem is that with a cheap on it just converts the signal into compatible VGA signal and *can* look crap quality. The more expensive boxes try to  up rez the picture and *can* look alot better.

Just going to try and dig up the link in the gaming section


edit: One of these may be worth looking at http://www.x2vga.com/

eBay have a few different VGA boxes, I was looking for one a while ago to turn a TFT into a TV for the conservatory.

Just seen this one that does widescreen too, which is what I need.

There seems to be a few, havent tried any though so I have no idea of the quality.

I might get that widescreen one, but it is a bit pricey.  Your other option is a TV card with some variety of composite input.

If anyone wants this one I have one I just bought just a few weeks ago. Its great but I just bought a widescreen monitor so need to upgrade already grr...

Its still boxed and can even provide electronic receipt / proof of purchase etc...

Ã,£20.00 delivered.

I also have an x2vga+ for sale which you cant get anymore for Ã,£30.00 delivered. This was purchased about 2 weeks ago from the US (second hand) but my cheapo widescreen LCD doesnt support it. Annoying as 90% of them do apparently. Will plug an xbox into a VGA monitor and up the resolution. See http://www.x2vga.com
